It was a lengthy process, but they did it!!! built a bridge. Well- the students did. All the loose pieces of wood came in handy in the construction. Have a look through the pictures to see what we did!

Thank you Loretta Turner and family for the wonderful tour of your farm on Friday. It was a rainy and cold day that some of us braved- and I am very glad we did.

Despite the cold we enjoyed seeing and holding the baby chicks (2 days old), picking chicken eggs, feeding pigs, petting cats, watching cows, following ducks, looking at the machinery and eating fresh garden butternut squash with hard boiled eggs for snack. All in all it was a great learning experience.

Making mud pies was a great end to a great trip. Thank you to all the parent volunteers who came along and joined the fun.

The boys worked hard on Thursday constructing this ship. The final touch was the flag you can see in the last photo. The measured, "sawed", tightened, balanced leveled, "sanded" and "painted" using the tools we had (and some imaginary ones we didn't have). It was a "5 more minutes!!??" kind of morning, which we allowed and they built for over an hour!
